- Retribution is completely broken and will be underdog comming casterclysm (only thing that can fix them is getting dispel back and or sacred shield).
- Holy is kind of OK, but healing is way still too low in numbers (will probably get tuned up though). More spells to toy around with, but both AoE heals are quite weak so we still nisch into tank healers.
- Shadow is INSANELY fun. Blizzard know that the dmg is abit low so this will be buffed for sure.
- Chakra (holy talent), Archangel (disc talent), Life Grip (new spell) <3 them.
- Paladin pet is kind of fail imo. Rarely use it.
- Holy Radiance costs SHITLOAD of mana and doesnt heal much as i said earlier.
- Inquisition is the worst skill in Cataclysm so far.
These thoughts are taken from Beta gameplay, and YES i know numbers aren't final and spells may change, but face it. It's too much to change without making Paladins OP again.
